Minecraft Movie Lego Sets Gives Insight Into Which Mobs Will Appear in the Jack Black Film

Lego Unveils New Minecraft Movie Sets Featuring Familiar and Unexpected Mobs

Ahead of the upcoming live-action Minecraft movie starring Jack Black, Lego has announced two new sets offering a glimpse into the film's action-packed scenes and characters. As reported by GamesRadar, these sets – the Woodland Mansion Fighting Ring and the Ghast Balloon Village Attack – expand the existing Minecraft Lego lineup with minifigures based on the film's cast, including Black's Steve and Jason Momoa's The Garbage Man.

The $49.99, 491-piece Woodland Mansion Fighting Ring set depicts a gladiator-style battle. Momoa's character is shown battling a zombie riding a surprisingly large chicken (the scale is unclear, possibly a baby zombie on a normal chicken, but it's significantly taller than The Garbage Man). The set also includes Steve, his companion Henry, a giant zombie pigman, a treasure chest, and a small viewing stand with weapons.

The $69.99, 555-piece Ghast Balloon Village Attack set showcases the Nether's Ghast in a large-scale battle within a standard overworld village. This set features a villager minifigure, two piglins, Steve, Natalie, Dawn, and an iron golem.

Both sets launch March 1st, a month before A Minecraft Movie hits theaters on April 4th. The film, revealed last September, initially faced criticism for the contrast between its live-action characters and the CGI-animated world. However, the director and producer, speaking to IGN in November, expressed confidence in their vision and preparedness for audience reactions.
